Description

Branched water-soluble polymers and conjugate thereof
The cross reference of related application
The application is the US temporary patent application No.60/454 proposed on March 14th, 2003,993, the US temporary patent application No.60/474 that on May 29th, 2003 proposes, 094, and the US temporary patent application No.60/509 that on October 7th, 2003 proposes, the non-provisional of 752 is submitted to, and the content of each application is introduced for reference comprehensively herein.
Technical field
The conjugate that the present invention relates to branched water-soluble polymers and formed by these branched polymers.
Background technology
Hydrophilic polymer, such as PEG (abbreviation PEG, be also called poly-(oxyethane), abbreviation PEO) with molecule and surface be conjugated in biotechnology and field of medicaments has considerable purposes.According to its most common form, PEG is the line polymer at each end hydroxy terminal:
HO-CH 2CH 2O-(CH 2CH 2O) n-CH 2CH 2-OH
Wherein n normally about 3 to about 4000.Many end-functionalization derivatives are known in the literature, and can be commercial.Such as, see Shearwater Polymers, Inc. " Polyethylene Glycol Derivatives " catalogue.
Having not isoplastic PEG material in each of two ends is special compounds effective.Such as, Heterobifunctional PEG can be used as linking agent.And, such as use the PEG molecule of alkyl " end-blocking " (such as methoxyl group) to make the C-terminal of molecule be converted into any one of a large amount of reactive organo-functional groups at an end.
Random or the segmented copolymer of oxyethane shown below and propylene oxide is closely related with PEG in chemical structure, and they can replace PEG in many application of PEG.
HO-CH 2CHRO-(CH 2CHRO) n-CH 2CR-OH
Wherein each R is H or CH independently 3.
The formation of the conjugate between therapeutic active substance and water-soluble polymers has proved the strategy being full of effect of pharmacokinetics for improvement of therapeutical agent and pharmacodynamics.Such as, see Dunn and Ottenbrite, " Polymeric Drugs and Drug DeliverySystems ": ACS Symposium Series 469, American Chemical Society, Washington, D.C.1991.Such as, PEG is used for the verified immunogenicity also prolongation clean-up time in the circulating cycle lowering peptide of application of derivatize peptide therapeutics.Such as, US patent No.4,179,337 (people such as Davis) relate to the non-immunogenic peptide being coupled to polyoxyethylene glycol (PEG) or polypropylene glycol, such as enzyme and peptide hormone.Every mole of peptide uses 10-100 moles of polymer, and keeps the physiologically active of at least 15%.
Other examples many of PEG-peptide conjugate are well known in the art.The major way that PEG and derivative thereof are connected to peptide is the non-specific binding by peptide ammino acid residue.Such as, US patent No.4,088,538 disclose the enzymic activity polymkeric substance-enzyme conjugate being connected to the enzyme of PEG with covalent linkage.Similarly, US patent No.4,496,689 disclose the mixture that α-1 proteinase inhibitor is connected with the covalent linkage of polymkeric substance such as PEG or methoxyl group PEG (" mPEG ").(J.Biol.Chem.252:3578 (1977) discloses the covalently bound of the amido of mPEG and bovine serum albumin to the people such as Abuchowski.WO93/15189 (people such as Veronese) relates to the method keeping the activity of poly ethyldiol modified proteolytic ferment by proteolytic ferment being connected to macromole inhibitor.This conjugate object is used for medical use.US patent No.4,414,147 disclose the acid anhydrides by being puted together by Interferon, rabbit in dicarboxylic acid, such as gather (ethylene glycol Succinic anhydried) and lower its hydrophobic method.PCT WO87/00056 discloses PEG and poly-(ethoxylation) polyvalent alcohol is puted together in such as beta-interferon, the method for the albumen of interleukin-2 and immunotoxin and so on.EP 154,316 discloses and require that chemical modification lymphokine, such as contains the IL-2 of the PEG of at least one primary amino being directly bonded in this lymphokine.US patent No.4,055,635 pharmaceutical compositions disclosing the water-soluble compound being connected to the proteolytic ferment of polymeric material such as polysaccharide with covalent linkage.
Another way PEG being connected to peptide is the non-specific oxidation by the glycosyl residue on peptide.Oxidized sugar is used as site PEG structure division being connected to peptide.Such as, M ' Timkulu (WO 94/05332) discloses hydrazine-or amino-PEG for PEG being added to the purposes of glycoprotein.Glycosyl structure part is randomly oxidized to corresponding aldehyde, and they are coupled to amino-PEG subsequently.
In above-mentioned each method, PEG adds to the reactive residue on peptide backbone in random, non-specific mode.Usually, result in the loss of peptide activity with PEG derivatize, this is directly owing to the non-selective character of the chemical process for puting together this water-soluble polymers.
Another difficult problem relevant with forming conjugate between water-soluble polymers and biomolecules is the ability of reaction water-soluble polymeric reagent in more than one site-tag biomolecules.Although usually wish that each conjugate comprises more than one water-soluble polymer structure part, the decreased extent of biomolecule activity is usually directly proportional to the number of the polymer moieties being bonded in biomolecules.Therefore, obtain that per molecule comprises the reactivity of two or more water-soluble polymer structure part, branched substances is significant.By using branching molecule, more than one water-soluble polymers can be puted together in biomolecules, and without the need to the more than one site in interfere with biomolecules.
Branched polymer based on PEG is well known in the art.Such as, the people (WO 98/41562) such as Greenwald discloses the branching PEG based on DAP core.Morpurgo and colleague thereof discuss the purposes of the branching PEG based on Methionin core in Appl.Biochem.Biotechnol.56:59-72 (1996).The similar branching PEG based on Methionin by people such as Guiotto, prepared by Bioorg.Med.Chem.Lett.12:177-180 (2002).The people such as Harris (US patent No.5,932,462) have also prepared the branching PEG based on Methionin.The people such as Martinez (US patent No.5,643,575) describe the conjugate (US patent No.6,113,906) of many branching PEG materials based on various nuclear structure and these materials and biological active materials.
Polymkeric substance, such as PEG is known to be existed as heterodisperse colony, that includes polymkeric substance chain length and the molecular weight of certain limit.When preparing treatment preparation, obviously, wishes that polymkeric substance that employing has minimum heterodispersity is to guarantee consistence between preparation and circulation ratio.Be known in the art the method almost not preparing single dispersing PEG sample.The people such as Loiseau disclose the synthesis of well-defined PEG molecule.The method adopts and protects/go Preservation tactics, and this is not best for a large amount of basic single dispersing PEG of preparation.Therefore, except branching PEG polymkeric substance, prepare single dispersing PEG and be desirable especially by this single dispersing material method be incorporated in branched polymer.
The present invention has responded the demand for branched water-soluble polymers and single dispersing PEG material, opens and obtains novel therapeutic conjugate, the approach of such as peptide conjugate, and solves for more stable and treat the demand of effective therapeutant.Still demand is there is for by the method for the modified group such as industrial practicality of water-soluble polymers modification treatment biomolecules.Meaningfully wherein conjugate has the method for the performance improved than unmodified therapeutical agent especially.Present invention accomplishes these and other demand.

In other embodiments, modified sugars is activation sugar.Activation modification sugar used in the present invention normally changes into by synthesis the glucosides comprising Activated leaving groups.Term as used herein " Activated leaving groups " refers to those structure divisions replaced in the nucleophilic substitution reaction easily regulated at enzyme.Be known in the art many activation sugar.Such as, see people such as Vocadlo, In CARBOHYDRATE CHEMISTRY AND BIOLOGY, the people such as Vol.2, Ernst, Ed., Wiley-VCH Verlag:Weinheim, Germany, 2000; The people such as Kodama, Tetrahedron Lett.34:6419 (1993); The people such as Lougheed, J.Biol.Chem.274:37717 (1999).
The example of activating group (leavings group) comprises fluorine, chlorine, bromine, tosylate, methanesulfonates, triflate etc.That significantly steric hindrance glucosides enzyme process transfers to those on acceptor for preferred Activated leaving groups of the present invention.Therefore, the preferred embodiment of activation glycosides derivatives comprises glycosyl fluorochemical and glycosyl methanesulfonates, and wherein glycosyl fluorochemical is particularly preferred.In glycosyl fluorochemical, fluoridize α-semi-lactosi, fluoridize α-seminose; fluoridize α-glucose, fluoridize α-Fucose, fluoridize α-wood sugar; fluoridize α-sialic acid, fluoridize α-N-acetyl glucosamine, fluoridize α-GalNAc; fluoridize beta galactose, fluoridize β-seminose, fluoridize β-glucose; fluoridize β-Fucose; fluoridize β-wood sugar, fluoridize β-sialic acid, it is most preferred for fluoridizing β-N-acetyl glucosamine and fluoridizing β-GalNAc.
For example, can by first by sugared acetylize with then prepare glycosyl fluorochemical by HF/ pyridine process cause free sugar.This generates the anomer of the most stable protection of thermodynamics (acetylize) glycosyl fluorochemical (that is, alpha-glycosyl fluorochemical).If need unstable anomer (that is, β-glycosyl fluorochemical), it can by being converted into different head bromide with HBr/HOAc or HCl by full acetylated sugar or prepared by muriate.Acetylated glycosyl fluorochemical can be protected by reacting to make a return journey in methyl alcohol (such as NaOMe/MeOH) with gentle (catalysis) alkali.In addition, many glycosyl fluorochemicals can be commercial.

In another exemplary embodiment, modified sugars is the oligosaccharides with feeler structure.In a preferred embodiment, one or more ends of feeler carry modified structure part.When more than one modified structure part is connected to the oligosaccharides with feeler structure, this oligosaccharides can be used for " amplification " modified structure part; The modified group of multiple copy is connected to this peptide by each oligosaccharide units puted together in peptide.General structure as the of the present invention typical conjugate as shown in upper figure includes by the multivalence material adopting feeler structure to prepare conjugate of the present invention acquisition.The sugared structure of many feelers is well known in the art, and the inventive method is implemented with them with can not being with restriction.
Generally, sugared structure division and modified group connect together by using reactive group, and this reactive group is converted into new organo-functional group or unreacted material by method of attachment usually.Sugar reactive functional groups is positioned on any position of sugared structure division.
In the following discussion, the many object lessons that can be used for implementing modified sugars of the present invention are illustrated.In an exemplary embodiment, the sialic acid sugared core connecting modified group.It is to clearly demonstrate that discussion concentrates on sialic acid derivative, should not be considered to the restriction of scope of the present invention.It will be obvious to those skilled in the art that other sugared structure division multiple can carry out activating and derivatize according to the described as an example similar mode of use sialic acid.Such as, many methods can be used for modification semi-lactosi, glucose, and GalNAc and Fucose provide several sugared substrate, and they easily carry out modification by art-recognized method.Such as, see people such as Elhalabi, Curr.Med.Chem.6:93 (1999); With people such as Schafer, J.Org.Chem.65:24 (2000).
In an exemplary embodiment, at prokaryotic cell prokaryocyte (such as E.coli.) by the peptide of method modification of the present invention, comprise the eukaryotic cell of yeast and mammalian cell (such as, Chinese hamster ovary celI), or in transgenic animal, producing the glycopeptide of the oligonucleotide chain also therefore containing N-and/or O-connection, they are by not exclusively sialylated.Lack sialic acid but the oligonucleotide chain of glycopeptide containing terminal galactose residues can carry out Glycopegylated, sugared PPGization or with the modification of modification sialic acid.
In scheme 2, the aminoglycoside 1 active ester process of protected amino acid (such as glycine) derivative, is converted into corresponding protected amino acid amide adduct by glucosamine residue.The zymohexase process of this adducts, forms alpha-hydroxy carboxylic acid compounds salt 2.By the effect of CMP-SA synthetic enzyme, compound 2 is converted into corresponding CMP derivative, this CMP derivative of subsequent catalytic hydrogenation, forms compound 3.By allowing compound 3 and activation (m-) PEG or (m-) PPG derivative (such as PEG-C (O) NHS, PPG-C (O) NHS) reaction, form 4 or 5 respectively, the amine introduced via formation glycine adduct is used as the site that PEG or PPG connects.

crosslinked group
Preparation for the modified sugars of method of the present invention comprises and modified group is connected to saccharide residue and forms stable adducts, and the latter is the substrate of glycosyltransferase.Sugar and modified group can carry out coupling by zero level or senior linking agent.Can be used for modified group to be connected to the exemplary difunctional compound of carbohydrate moiety including, but not limited to Bifunctionalized PEG, polymeric amide, polyethers, polyester etc.Known in the literature for carbohydrate being connected to the general method of other molecule.Such as, see people such as Lee, Biochemistry 28:1856 (1989); The people such as Bhatia, Anal.Biochem.178:408 (1989); The people such as Janda, the people such as J.Am.Chem.Soc.112:8886 (1990) and Bednarski, WO92/18135.In the following discussion, the reactive group on the sugared structure division of newborn modified sugars carries out favourable process.Concentrated discussion is to clearly demonstrate.It will be apparent to those skilled in that, this discussion is relevant to the reactive group in modified group.
Exemplary policy comprises use heterobifunctional agents SPDP, and (protection sulfydryl is incorporated into sugar and above and then sulfydryl is gone protection by n-succimide base-3-(2-pyridyl dithio) propionic ester, forms disulfide linkage with another sulfydryl in modified group.
If SPDP deleteriously have impact on the ability that modified sugars is used as glycosyltransferase substrate, one of other linking agent a series of such as 2-imino-sulphur ring (2-iminothiolane) or N-succimide base S-acetylthioacetate (SATA) are used for forming disulfide linkage.2-imino-sulphur ring and primary amine reaction, be incorporated into unprotected sulfydryl in the molecule containing amine immediately.SATA also with primary amine reaction, but introduce the sulfydryl of protection, it used azanol to carry out deacetylation afterwards, formed free sulfhydryl groups.In all cases, the sulfydryl introduced freely with other sulfydryl or protect sulfydryl such as SPDP to react, the disulfide linkage needed for formation.
Above-mentioned strategy is the example for connection base of the present invention, is not restrictive.Can obtain other linking agent, they can be used for Different Strategies modified group and peptide are cross-linked.Such as, (((S-(2-thiopyridine base) sulfydryl-propionyl hydrazine) is reacted with the carbohydrate moiety be oxidized by the periodate process of gentleness in advance TPCH, therefore between the hydrazides part and the aldehyde of periodate generation of linking agent, defines hydrazone key for S-(2-thiopyridine base)-Cys hydrazides and TPMPH.The sulfydryl that 2-pyridyl thioketones is protected is incorporated on sugar by TPCH and TPMPH, and it can go protection with DTT, then for puting together, is such as formed in the disulfide linkage between component.
If find that disulfide linkage is unsuitable for producing stable modified sugars, other linking agent of the more stable key introduced between component can be used.Heterobifunctional agents GMBS (N-γ-maleimidobutyryloxy) succimide) and SMCC (succimide base 4-(N-maleimidomethyl) hexanaphthene) and primary amine reaction, therefore maleimide base group is incorporated in this component.Dimaleoyl imino can react with the sulfydryl in another component subsequently, and the latter can be introduced by aforementioned crosslinking agent, because which form the stable thioether bond between component.If the steric hindrance between component disturbs the ability that the activity of any one component or modified sugars are used as glycosyltransferase substrate, linking agent can be used, it introduces long spacer arm and includes the derivative (that is, SPDP) of some of aforementioned crosslinking agent between component.Therefore, there is spendable a large amount of linking agent be applicable to; They are produced to best peptide conjugate and modified sugars the effect had according to it separately and select.
Plurality of reagents can be used to component with intramolecular chemical linking agent modified modified sugar (about the commentary of linking agent and cross-linking process step, see Wold, F., Meth.Enzymol.25:623-651,1972; Weetall, H.H., and Cooney, D.A., In:ENZYMES ASDRUGS. (Holcenberg, and Roberts, eds.) pp.395-442, Wiley, NewYork, 1981; Ji, T.H., Meth.Enzymol.91:580-609,1983; The people such as Mattson, Mol.Biol.Rep.17:167-183,1993, they are all incorporated herein for reference).Preferred linking agent is by various distance of zero mark, with difunctionality and heterobifunctional agents's acquisition.Zero-length crosslinking reagents comprises directly puting together of two intrinsic chemical groups, does not introduce foreign material.The reagent that catalyses disulfide bond is formed belongs to this kind of.Another example brings out carboxyl and primary amino condensation, and to form the reagent of amido linkage, such as carbodiimide, Vinyl chloroformate, (2-ethyl-5-phenyl is different for Woodward reagent K azoles father-in-law-3 '-sulfonate), and carbonyl dimidazoles.Except these chemical reagent, enzyme-transglutaminase (glutamyl-peptide gamma-glutamyl based transferase; EC 2.3.2.13) can zero-length crosslinking reagents be used as.This enzyme catalysis at the carboxamide groups place of protein bound glutaminyl residues usually with the acyl group shift reaction as the primary amino of substrate.Preferably contain two identical or two different loci respectively with Heterobifunctional reagent, they can have reactivity to amino, sulfydryl, guanidine radicals, indoles or nonspecific group.
I. the preferred specific site in linking agent
1, amino-reactive group
In a preferred embodiment, the site on linking agent is amino-reactive group.The useful limiting examples of amino-reactive group comprises N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) ester, imino esters, isocyanic ester, acyl halide, aromatic yl azide, p-nitrophenyl ester, aldehyde, and SULPHURYL CHLORIDE.
NHS ester primary (comprising aromatics) amino that is preferential and modified sugars component reacts.The imidazole group of Histidine is known to primary amine competing reaction, but reaction product is unstable and easily hydrolysis.This reaction relates to the nucleophillic attack of amine on the acidic carboxypolymer of NHS, forms acid amides, release N-hydroxysuccinimide.Therefore, the positive charge of starting amino loses.
Imino esters is the most special acylating agent for reacting with the amido of modified sugars component.Under the pH of 7-10, imino esters only with primary amine reaction.Primary amine nucleophillic attack imido-ester, forms the intermediate resolving into amidine at a high ph or be decomposed into new imido-ester at a low ph.This imidate can with another primary amine reaction, therefore make two amino be cross-linked, that is, the situation of the monofunctional imido-ester of the difunctional reactant of presumption.The amidine that alkalescence is better than initial amine with the primary product of primary amine reaction.Therefore the positive charge of starting amino is retained.
Isocyanic ester (and lsothiocyanates) and the primary amine reaction of modified sugars component, form stable key.They and the reaction of sulfydryl, imidazoles and tyrosyl obtain relative unstable product.
Acyl azide can also be used as amino specific reagent, and wherein the nucleophilic amine of affinity component is under weak basic condition, such as, attacks acidic carboxypolymer under pH8.5.
Amino and the tyrosine phenolic groups of the preferential and modified sugars component of fluoro-2, the 4-dinitrobenzenes of aryl halide such as 1,5-bis-are reacted, and react with sulfydryl and imidazole group.
The p-nitrophenyl ester of monocarboxylic acid and dicarboxylic acid is also useful amino-reactive group.Although this reagent specificity is not very high, α-and omega-amino-seem to react the most rapidly.
The primary amine reaction of aldehyde such as glutaraldehyde and modified sugars.Although define unstable Schiff when the amino reaction with aldehyde, glutaraldehyde can by stable this modified sugars cross-linking modified.At pH6-8, under the pH of typical cross linking conditions, cyclic polymer experienced by dehydration, forms α, beta-unsaturated aldehyde polymkeric substance.But Schiff is stable, when puting together in another double bond.The Resonant Interaction of two double bonds prevents the hydrolysis of Schiff key.In addition, the amine under high local concentrations can attack olefinic double bond, thus forms stable Michael adduct.
Each site of aromatics SULPHURYL CHLORIDE and modified sugars component is reacted, but is most important with the reaction of amino, defines stable sulphonamide key.

Alkylogen and sulfydryl, sulfide, imidazoles and amino react.But under neutrality to weakly alkaline pH, the main and sulfydryl of alkylogen reacts, and forms stable thioether bond.Under higher pH, be preferential with the reaction of amino.
Pyridine disulfide reacts with free sulfhydryl groups via disulfide exchange, obtains mixed disulphide.As a result, Pyridine disulfide is the sulfydryl reactive group that specificity is the highest.
Thiophthalimide and free sulfhydryl groups react, and form disulphide.
